They preferred to dwell in hot environments like volcanic areas, either in caverns or castles, and existed in societies often led by a king or a queen.[5]

Their clothing was usually flame-colored or black, and singed. Armor was generally made from steel. Fire Giants used magically flaming weapons whenever possible. They attacked with rocks heated in fire or lava to soften targets before engaging in melee.[5]

Fire Giants were hostage takers and often took payments from less powerful creatures in the surrounding area in exchange for not attacking them.[5]
